Only Lovers Left Alive

Tilda Swinton in Only Lovers Left Alive

This is such a gorgeous movie. Beautiful. Contemplative. Like pressing pause and watching life go by, slowly, as if you yourself were thousands of years old. Most contemporary film directors try to cram so much action, suspense, emotion into those 2 hours or so... It felt wonderfully liberating to watch these two beautiful creatures just do nothing and be. And the music is amazing.
